Summer Camp England

3rd July 2015

Big Night

It is already the last day of the first week and we made sure that it was unforgettable. Adventure, colours and fun was the plan for today.

In the morning most of the programs followed their usual schedule. Afternoon was full of diverse sign up activities such as Dodgeball, Yoga and Jewellery Making.

The rest of the afternoon was dedicated to the final preparation of the Big Night! Big Night, if you wonder what it is, it is one of our all camp evening and also one of our best tradition. Basically it is the Olympics of the Camp with an atmosphere that you can only find at York.

The camp is divided within several teams of different colours and themes. The theme and the colour should be an inspiration for chants, a banner and a mascot in order to make the most memorable entrance to the Village Camps Olympics. All the age groups were represented in the different colour teams. Together they used all their energy, efforts and enthusiasm to make their colour district stand out.

After all the opening parade, chants and presentation of the district tributes it was time for number of relay races. Teams competed against each other's and the atmosphere was filled with loud chanting, cheering and celebrations. It was very difficult for the judges to decide which team had the best mascot and banner. But at the end there was just one team winning the amazing pizza party.

Congratulations to the WHITE Super Mario team who managed to win this wonderful night!!

Tonight Village Camps has seen a lots of really great team spirit. That is why we at Village Camps love Big Night so much. Each camper was involved and gave his best for his group. A wonderful way to celebrate the first half of the session!
